>So, the real question is, am I really cleaning up memory much at all, if I have a bunch of DLLs declared and do a CLEAR DLLS? Or is it just a tiny bit of reference space, not worth bothering with? Maybe that was Vlad's point.

Yes, this is exactly what I meant. If you compare the risk of breaking other pieces of program that use DLL functions with the fact that you save a few bytes of memory for each declared/cleared function ... it's not worth it. The risk is much more important than the gain.
